Hi, y'all!

When I start AppleWin using WINE and Ubuntu Linux I get the
following message:
fixme:keyboard:RegisterHotKey (0x10026,1029,0x00000000,44): stub

AppleWin seems to run OK so I'm wondering if I should worry about
it or if there's anything I can do about it.

There are Apple// emulators which run directly under Linux. As I recall
there is an Applesoft emulator which will install direct from the
repositories. I don't recall if the full emulators are available there
or not. Regardless, you should be able to download the source and
compile it. This way you aren't going through a couple of additional layers.

As to fixing AppleWin, I'd say if things work and you are OK with the
error message then don't worry.

Later
Mike

If the error message is at all meaningful, it is saying that the
RegisterHotKey function has not been implemented in WINE.
RegisterHotKey allows the current thread to set up a key or
combination of keys to do something. RegisterHotKey has four
parameters that I assume are listed in the message. They are:

1. the handle of the window to receive the hotkey notification.
2. ID of the hotkey
3. key modifier flags
4. virtual key code

The key modifier being 0x00000000 means that no other keys (like
ctrl, alt & shift) are used in combination with the hotkey.
The virtual key code being presumably decimal 44 would be the Print
Screen key.

From that I would guess that somewhere in CiderPress there is a
function using the Print Screen key and that it doesn't work (or
works differently than intended) under WINE.

Along these lines, I've had ucsd_pme-0.1.0.tgz, a UCSD I.5 emulator,
running on Ubuntu.

I haven't tried it, but this Java based emulation looks promising:

Hi, y'all!

Thanks to Mike, Charlie, John and Nicolas for your information!
AppleWin under WINE runs a bit slower than under XP. LinApple without
a debugger is of no use to me. Although the debugger in AppleWin
under WINE works, there's a major annoyance. Hitting the space bar to
execute the next instruction gets the expected result but you also get
a double refresh of the whole debugging window. Also, explicitly
closing the help window is a problem so it should just be left open
until you finish.

FWIW, you might also consider one of the PC emulators such as VirtualBox
to run a simple Windows session. This would allow running Applewin and
CiderPress in the same environment. Just another option.

As a mention, DosBox and/or Dosemu run the PcDOS based emulators such as
ApplePC.

Cheers,
